<h1>Introduction</h1>

<p>Utility Library mostly consists of a header-only sub-libraries
(the only exception is Introspection Library) so you don't need to
build anything to start using it. However you may want to build
examples or libraries that require compilation. This section describes
how to do that.</p>

<h1>Prerequisites</h1>

<p>To build libraries or examples you will need GNU make and a C++
compiler with good support of ISO C++ standard.</p>

<p>Utility Library building environment requires latest features of
GNU make so you have the following options (in the order of increasing
complexity):</p>

<ul>
<li>Use GNU make 3.81 or later (not available at the time this is written).</li>
<li>Use GNU make 3.80 with patches for bug
<a href="http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=detailbug&amp;bug_id=1516&amp;group_id=71">1516</a>
and
<a href="http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=detailbug&amp;bug_id=1517&amp;group_id=71">1517</a>.
</li>
<li>Use GNU make from CVS.</li>
</ul>
